Early-stage analytics are polluted by bots, so founders misread traction

Pain point

A first-time builder celebrates "global traffic" that commenters immediately diagnose as scrapers: *"Keep an eye on average engagement time per country... scrapers love inflating early global hits"* and *"Dont worry, it's just bots scraping your website."*

Signal

Medium — one post (19 upvotes) but two converging commenters plus adjacent *"set up Search Console too"* advice, indicating a knowledge gap, not just a tooling gap.

Opportunity

Lightweight analytics layer that labels traffic "human vs. likely bot/LLM crawler" by default and gives a plain-English weekly verdict ("3 real visitors, 400 scrapes"). Medium build; strong wedge for the beginner-founder segment.
